Synopsis:
A true story about two boys, Norman and Paul, growing up in Montana. One is rebellious of
his father, Rev. Maclean, while the other has his feet on the ground. The one love they
both have is fly fishing
Trivia & Facts:
'William Hurt' wanted to play the role of Paul Maclean and once went fishing with
Norman Maclean in Montana. When Hurt asked if he'd fished well enough to portray his
brother, Maclean replied: "Well, Bill, you're a pretty good fisherman but not good enough
to be my brother."
Trout used in the movie were pond-raised in Montana and were kept in a specially
aerated and cooled tank truck until their big moment in front of the cameras. No hooks were
used, and no blood was drawn. A line was tied to each fish's lower jaw under the careful
observance of the Montana Humane Society.
None of the actors had ever fly fished before making the movie.
Though she plays Stephen Shellen's mother in the film, 'Edie McClurg' is only six
years older.
Robert Redford courted author Norman Maclean for years to gain the rights to his
autobiographical novella.
Elmer Bernstein wrote the original score for this film. However, it was rejected
by director Robert Redford and so Mark Isham composed a new one.
The poem that Norman and his father recite is an excerpt from 'Ode: Intimations Of
Immortality From Recollections Of Early Childhood' by William Wordsworth.
Even though the film claims that it is filmed in Missoula, it is actually filmed
in and around Livingston and Big Timber, Montana. Many of the fishing scenes were filmed in
the Boulder River Valley, south of Big Timber.
At one point, this was considered as a vehicle for Lloyd Bridges and his two sons,
Beau and Jeff.

| Quotes |
Paul: Oh, I'll never leave Montana, brother.
Norman: You're late, Neal.
Neal Burns: Yeah, yeah, I didn't get in until late.
Paul: Well, I didn't get in at all but I was here.
Norman: Neil, Paul. Paul, Neil.
Paul: Neal, in Montana there's three things we're never late for: church, work and
fishing.
Paul: Couldn't you find him?
Norman: The hell with him.
Paul: Well, I thought we were supposed to help him.
Norman: How the hell do you help that son of a bitch?
Paul: By taking him fishing.
Norman: He doesn't like fishing. He doesn't like Montana and he sure as hell doesn't
like me.
Paul: Well, maybe what he likes is somebody trying to help him.
Norman: I'm in deep trouble.
Paul: Yep. Want me to come over and protect you?
Paul: Hello, Jess.
Jesse: Hey, Paul.
Paul: How's your brother?
Jesse: You both left him alone.
Paul: Well, I'm sorry about that. That was my fault.
Jesse: Well, you're not forgiven.
Paul: Was Norman forgiven?
Jesse: Norman's not funny.
